The Lodge

The sparkling sea. The endless mountains. The diverse fynbos. You simply won’t know which way to turn as you soak up the incredible views from your patio at Crayfish Lodge, all while enjoying your luxurious and stylish room. And, where else in the world can you enjoy a shark viewing adventure in the morning, a coastal hike in the afternoon and a stroll on the beach as the sun sets?

Facilities

Whether you’re relaxing in our expansive lounge area, soaking up the view on the veranda or sunning yourself by the pool, Crayfish Lodge will make you feel at home no matter what time of year you visit us.

We’re famous for our deluxe breakfasts which feature fresh pastries, homemade jams and other local seasonal produce. Cheese and cured meat platters are available to order, and we’ve hand-picked only the best selection of local wines that we feature on our extensive wine list.
